Scrolling through my For You Page a mere few days ago, I come across a skit. A girl, dressed in baggy jeans, starring faint-lidded at the camera, repeats, “my jeans are blue,” her words faint and slurred. This mock of Sydney Sweeney in the new American Eagle ad is, unfortunately, pretty accurate.

But after four seasons of “will they, won’t they,” aren’t we tired of this by now? The unattainable love interest is a long-beloved trope in rom-coms, often used to propel our heroine into a journey of self-love.
